{"product_id":"ai-matrix","title":"AI Matrix","description":"Artificial intelligence (AI) is heralded as a revolutionary force in the global economy. But the transformation it brings is not simply about new technology as a driver of change. It is about who owns it, what they want to do with it, who can pay for it, and how other economic actors around the world – from legacy manufacturing firms in the Global North to farmers in the Global South – must adjust.\n\n\nThis book explores AI systems as products of unequal and conflictual power relations. It exposes grand AI narratives as rhetorical ammunition in political fights over tech futures and socio-economic distribution. Tech giants leverage infrastructure and data to cement their global dominance. Meanwhile, geopolitical competition between China and the United States increasingly dominates the AI economy, entrenching globe-spanning dependencies. The AI Matrix is an essential guide to the real-world economic dynamics that AI unleashes.","brand":"Edinburgh University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55283470467416,"sku":"9781788218597","price":38.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781788218597.jpg?v=1778669116","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/ai-matrix","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
